Supplementary data for: Comparison of selected terramechanical test procedures and cartographic indices to predict rutting caused by machine traffic during a cut-to-length thinning-operation

Terramechanical instruments were applied at newly assigned machine operating trails, in broadleaved-dominated mixed stands on cambisols in Lower Saxony, Germany. Afterward, a regularly planned cut-to-length thinning-operation was conducted. Measuring results were correlated with observed rut depth, resulting from the operating machines. Post-operational soil properties were quantified.
